At Black Then, we frequently see interesting photos that give us a glimpse into the past. They tend to show us a piece of black history that is often not covered in textbooks, in history classes, or shown in the media.

In a photo that we found on Black History Album , we see this great image called “While Thousands Cheer | 1940” . The picture shows Movie lobby card from the Hollywood film While Thousands Cheer. 1940. Collection of Oakland Museum of California.
